Hi all I could really use a pointer in the right direction. I have a big trip from Seattle to Atlanta coming up. I originally used a motorcycle specific service called Rever that shows all the cool rides you can follow. I exported that to a GPX file and imported it into Basecamp as a new track. I also tried creating a new route in basecamp and adding waypoints (less preferred). Lastly I tried just putting the start, finish and then used shaping points to force it along the roads I wanted. I did not create a trip as I dont know how many miles I will either want, or be able to do each day. Here is my issue after uploading all those options to my Zumo XT:
- I can't just follow the tracks I uploaded. The Zumo wants to convert it to a trip. When you start the trip, if you chose any place other than the starting point, it will completely recalculate the route losing all the fun roads I picked out.
- Using the route with tons of waypoints, the trip gets broken up as i have too many waypoints.
- Using the route with the shaping points I run into the same issue as with the tracks listed above.
So how do I create a specific route that the Zumo will always try and follow each morning when I start off from the hotel, and not have it recalculate unless I mistakening deviate from the roads I picked? Which is the right approach?
Thanks!
